Hello, my name is jose bryan solis jimenez today I will explain the subject of possession and determiners What is Possesive We use pronouns to refer to possession and ‘belonging’. There are two types: possessive pronouns and possessive determiners. We use possessive determiners before a noun. We use possessive pronouns in place of a noun: • Possessive pronouns: my, our, your, their, his, her, its These pronouns are used to show posession or belonging. Examples: This is my family. What is your address? https://dictionary.cambridge.org/grammar/british-grammar/pronouns/pronouns-possessive-my-mine-your-yours-etc DETERMINERS Determiners are words that are used before nouns to identify them. Determiners may be divided into: • Articles: a/an, the The words ‘a’ and ‘an’ are called indefinite articles. They are used with singular countable nouns. Example: Have you a pencil? The word ‘the’ is called the definite article. It is used before a noun which refers to something or someone definite. Example: You may keep the change. • Demonstrative adjectives: this, that, these, those These adjectives indicate the noun that is being referred to. Examples: This book is mine. Those books are yours. • Adjectives of quantity: some, much, less Examples: I ate some rice. I did not eat any rice. I ate much rice. • Adjectives of number: many, few, several, each They tell us how many things or persons are being referred to. Examples: Several books were stolen from the library.
